Hey guys, just for reference, how hard did ppl find the sample paper? I just did it and I got high 60s :/
it looked easier than it was, found it fairly challenging but not as hard as other trials, got mid-high 80s

The sample paper was actually pretty easy compared to school trial papers and stuff. There weren't any surprises and it was straight from the syllabus.

BUT no dont worry, you still have 3 days!!!!! focus on doing the stuff you're not confident in and honestly your mark barely matters it scales up hella well

Haha yeah I'm just hoping I can scrape in to that 70-80 cutoff for E4 haha

But that's unlikely

Nah, its more than likely! Depending on the paper, a raw mark of 60 in exam could potentially still land you a E4

i feel you I'm hoping for 75-80 to barely cop an E4 but hopefully i can surpass my expectations

WTF a 60!!!!!! also e4 means "band 6" right like a 90+?
Ya lol, apparently raw mark of 60-70+ usually correlates to B6 is guess. Honestly its not that surprising cause majority of the cohort don't even finish the entire paper.

I found it pretty difficult - took 2 and a half hours just to finish it and I ended up with mid-90’s
Damn pretty sure if you get that it will be a new record for the BOS maths ext 2 exam. Highest so far in the exams was last year which was an 80 and that beat the previous record by quite a few marks

Also pretty sure a few of the previous participants have been math olympians and all that good stuff and they couldn’t get 90+.

omg thank u so much. i got in the 50s in trials and i didnt study for it and my rank was <5 (i go to trash public school tho) so im hoping if i cram the next two days i might be able to push my mark into the 60s thats all i want tbh i think my internals might carry me but i lowkey think i fcked my chance at getting a band 6 i did kinda good internally and have a good rank but externals is effdsjds im sorry for rambling omg im scared
Look, the reality is that if u get like 50 in 4u it still scales briliantly lol

Theres a solid argument for me to just work on bio rn because that will help my atar way more haha
